From the Shepherd's Heart...Friday, August 26, 2016

I am sorry for my unplanned missing Wednesday night service but I want to thank Keith Williams for leading the service with only a couple hours of notice.  Thanks Keith.

Next Wednesday night our new Children's ministry will have a Arrow Kid's Club's Kickoff with all the adults, students and children meeting in the Auditorium at 6:10.  The official night of the first Club meetings in the newly remodeled facilities will be Wednesday, September 7.

This Sunday, all the children (Grades 1-6) will meet in the Gym for Sunday School.  This is due to all the classes moving to their new space in the basement under the Student Center.  All Children's (Grade 1-6) Sunday School classes will meet in their new spaces Sunday, September 4.  (Daphne Garrett's class is the only one not moving).

Then our newly remodeled Student Center will be open for the Students Wednesday, September 7. How exciting!!

We will have "Open House" for our newly remodeled facilities on Sunday, September 11 after the morning service.

We need some volunteers to help with Upward on GameDay through October 1.  We need 4 volunteers per game (9:00, 10:00 and 11:00) to operate the scoreboards and hold down markers.  The immediate need is this Saturday's games. Contact Drew Hogsed at 256-599-3231 if you can help or sign up in the Foyer.

This Sunday morning, many of our Adult classes will be studying The Parable of the Good Samaritan from Luke 10.  In light of that, I have chosen to use that same text from which to preach (I am preaching from the Gospel of Luke this year).  I've entitled the message "The Gospel In a Story."

Sunday night I conclude the series "Worship: The Passion of God for God" with this message "Earthly Worship is a Rehearsal for Heavenly Worship" based on Revelation 4-5.  We are having tremendous attendance (over 160 the last two Sunday nights) and I look forward to a wonderful night of worship.

Men...don't forget Sunrise Breakfast Fellowship in the morning at Cracker Barrel at 6:00.

Love you church family.  It is an honor to serve our Lord and you!
